### Question: Who needs Colposcopic biopsy?
### Response: Colposcopy is done to detect either cancer of the cervix or changes that may lead to cancer at an early stage.
This procedure is most often done when you have had an abnormal Pap smear. It may also be recommended if you have bleeding after sexual intercourse.
Colposcopy may also be done when your health care provider sees abnormal areas on your cervix during a pelvic exam. These may include:
Any abnormal growth on the cervix, or elsewhere in the vagina Genital warts or HPV Irritation or inflammation of the cervix (cervicitis)
The colposcopy may be used to keep track of HPV, and to look for abnormal changes that can come back after treatment.
